Astor Bake Shop

Chef George McKirdy serves one of the best burgers in New York City at Astor Bake Shop, his sweet corner restaurant in Astoria. Made from a custom Pat LaFrieda blend, his juicy burger is topped with lettuce, tomatoes, the cheese of your choice, pickles and a very special sauce, which is made from dried ancho, chipotle and piquillo peppers, fresh garlic, onions and tomato, all folded into a base mayonnaise that's seasoned with salt and pepper — outstanding.
